Can you point me to the document that shows we are in self help?

Where did I state either of those? Hopefully you read the TA better than you do posts on a web forum.

If the company offered a choice of $50K in retro, or $100K in signing bonus, you would vote for the retro?
The difference (to pilots) is semantics. To the company, it could mean huge tax consequences. That is why companies prefer a signing bonus.
It is the amount that matters, not the name. Companies benefit by delay tactics, no matter the end game.

Can you explain and give a source for the tax implications of retro versus bonus?

I am in favor of everyone getting retro pay, as the amount would more likely be larger than a signing bonus, for both those flying extra and those electing not to fly extra.
More pay is more pay, so why are people against it? Jealousy?
Other airlines get it, why can't we?

You insinuate that the draft "hoorse" are doing something wrong. If we are not in self help, they are legally following the contract. The union even said so in one of its missives.

If we want more of that, we should keep doing what we're doing.
